First Snow in the Netherlands

Our first accumulation of snow. I had wrongly assumed that being close to the coast (about an hour away) that if we got any snow it would like melt on impact. However we have about an inch (2-3 cm). on the ground. Enough that I had to go and break out the Bavarian snow shovel to clear the side walks and the driveway.These are the pictures I took on a quick walk to around town to assess running and biking conditions. I think I will be able to run the trails later in the afternoon as the roads are pretty well salted allowing me to get tot he trails without too much hazard.

What I am shooting my self for is not getting my mountain bike assembled since the move. I am going to have to make priority this weekend assembling the bike then giving it a service. I think a little mud/snow/slush rides will be quite fun.
